Jon Decker reports from Dallas, Texas, as Republicans gather for their first-ever midterm convention and President Donald Trump prepares to take center stage ahead of the November elections.
With Republicans defending narrow majorities in Congress, Trump is playing an outsized role in the party’s midterm strategy as GOP leaders, administration officials and candidates gather in Dallas.
Decker also reports on the escalating conflict with Iran after the United States destroyed Iranian oil tankers in response to attempted attacks on U.S. warships in the Middle East. The strikes come as Washington increases pressure on Iran’s oil exports and its ability to fund military operations.
Plus, the U.S.-Canada trade dispute intensifies as the Trump administration announces new restrictions and tariffs on Canadian products, while officials from both countries remain in contact over a possible resolution.
Finally, the Supreme Court declines to allow Missouri to use a newly drawn congressional map in the November midterm elections, adding another development to the nationwide battle over redistricting and control of Congress.
